Maxtor (seagte) DiamondMax 23 Burnt?

The reset pin on a microcontroller is usually held low while the power supply is starting up. After the supplies have stabilised, then the reset pin is released. A typical arrangement might use a capacitor and series resistor to set the time constant. Others may use a special purpose supervisor IC. However, I believe hard drive MCUs are under the supervision of the motor controller IC which generates a POK (power OK) signal when the supplies are within spec. This is discussed in the L7250 datasheet.

If you are intent on probing your board, then measure the Vcore and Vio supplies. Look for 1.2V, 2.5V (or 3.3V), and a negative supply for the preamp. The top two coils should provide convenient test points, as well as the jumper block, and the supply pins of the RAM and EEPROM. I suspect that the negative supply may be present on one of the pins of the 8-pin chip to the right of the third coil.

Schematics disagree...

how can i recover my hdd data?
is anyone can help me?

[BlackST]

Who / what suggested you to send such commands if the problem was not diagnosed properly ?

P.S. better to start a new thread instead of attaching to an existing post.

i updated my patient hdd firmware module with doner hdd'firmware
and this error message appeared

my hdd is ST2000DL003, firmware is CC31
can you help me please?

[BlackST]

Too late...
Did you BACKUP all the previous firmware and ROM ?
P.s. It wasn't my hdd !

yes. i backuped the patient's firmware and rom.
but i can't update back to old firmware.
because it is being "busy error"

and i effort to fix the busy error like below , but failed

can you help me?

[BlackST]

Yes but not remotely. Note that data could have been affected, and that 'busy fix' was a really bad idea beside having nothing to do with the original problem...

humm.. BlackST. your answer looked so bad.
you look don't have helping mind from the first time.

No Thank you your answer anymore.
do not answer like this to anyone who need help.

and i fix the busy error today.

with help from kind another man.

I am not obliged to help everyone who come and ask (especially on compromised drives) and don't want moral or material responsability in loss of data or further damage so I help remotely / use remote desktop only with other professionals , otherwise it's necessary to see the drive LIVE.
It's good that your drive is not busy anymore, good luck for all the remaining fixing.

Yes,you are not obliged to help otherman ,
but you must not make cynical remarks to anyone who need help.
